Pelvic Floor Strength and Stress Incontinence with Lina Alvino, PT
In this episode of The Superhuman Blueprint Podcast, host Drew Griesel delves deep into the world of pelvic health with special guest Lina Alvino, a physical therapist specializing in pelvic health. The conversation covers a wide range of topics including the importance of pelvic floor strength, the impact of childbirth on women's pelvic health, and strategies for both prevention and rehabilitation of common issues like stress incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse. Lina provides practical advice on exercises and lifestyle adjustments that can significantly improve pelvic floor strength and alleviate symptoms, not only for postpartum women but for men experiencing pelvic floor issues as well. Furthermore, the episode debunks the misconception that pelvic health issues must be normal or untreatable, especially highlighting that progress and recovery are possible regardless of how long ago childbirth occurred.
